(>Introduction<)

          This is a fairly simple modification that can be made to any =
phone.
All it does is allow you to take any 2 lines in your house and create a =
party
line. So far I have not heard of any problems with it from my friends =
that have
set one up and I have not had any either. There is one thing that you =
will
notice when you are one of the two people who is called by a person with =
this
box. The other person will sound a little bit faint.  I could overcome =
this
with some amplifiers but then there wouldn't be very many of these boxes =
made.
I think that the convenience of having two people on line at any one =
time will
make up for the minor volume loss.

           In some houses the black and yellow are already wired in =
others you
will have to go out to your box and rewire it. A good way to figure out =
which
line is which is to take the phone you are looking for off the hook.  =
Then you
only need to take the red and green wires entering your phone and hook =
them
to the different pairs of red and green going into the house.  You can't =
hurt
anything in the phone or telephone by probeing.  When you find the pair =
that
you want take the black from your line and attach it to the red of the =
other
line then take the yellow and attach it to the green line.  Now you are =
all set
to go.  For people with rotary phones you can have one person call you =
then
place the second call out to the other person. Though not phreakers =
tool,
the brown box can be phun.
